Chapter 119: The Characteristics of the Holy Sword
After Bahamut faintly expressed his approval of sending troops, Lin Yuedong and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as she is willing to express her attitude as a religious leader, the combination of clerical power + popular will can make the Grand Duke of Malphilion retreat. That thing is a man who puts his life first and is not willing to take half a risk. As long as he sees the possibility of a rebellion in the country, and thinks about his own life, he will not disagree to send troops.
This is not in vain for the three of them to solve the hard work of Frido.
Li Qinglan and Lin Yuedong thanked one after another, and were about to say goodbye and leave, but the holy woman behind them suddenly said: "Your Majesty the Dragon King, all you want is to express your attitude?" β
Bahamut hesitated for a moment before saying, "yes, what? Do you have any grievances? β
The Holy Maiden said in a deep voice: "No, I only heard when I was on the Western Front that the Dragon King Bahamut is powerful, and if it can join the war, it can destroy the Demon King's army in an instantβsince you have decided to fight against the Demon King, why don't you simply join the war yourself?" With your joining, I believe that the demon king army on the other side is also vulnerable. β
Li Qinglan and Lin Yuedong looked at each other: yes, I forgot to tell her this.
The idea of the Holy Maiden is reasonable, but it is based on the fact that Bahamut can move freely. The dragon king Bahamut could not move freely, which was a major secret that even those witches who served her did not know, Li Qinglan and Lin Yuedong felt that they could not explain the source of the information, so they never told the holy maiden, and as a result, the holy maiden asked such an embarrassing question on the spot.
If I knew it earlier, I would have heard it from the five elf kings...... Anyway, when I came, I wanted the five elf kings to take the blame, and what if I pulled them out and carried them again this time, I really thought about it.
"Well," said the Dragon King after a moment's hesitation, "I've been through the Elven War, and I don't want to go into another war. Leave the affairs of mankind to the human beings themselves. I have made a statement, and it is already the limit. β
"But if you join the war, the number of casualties will be much lower, and the winners and losers will be decided faster. What the demon king Solomon is doing may be close to success, or it may have succeeded, but in any case, if he can't find a way to solve him quickly, maybe the world will really be destroyed by him. The saint said eagerly.
"O shepherd maiden of the Holy Lukian Empire, you can rest assured, I can feel that he has not yet succeeded in the end." The Dragon King's voice was a little smiling, "The soldiers are fierce and dangerous, don't be in a hurry, and have a stable mentality." It's been three years, don't have a problem at the last minute. β
When the saint heard its name, her face turned slightly red: "You already recognize me?" β
The Dragon King laughed: "Haha, even if I don't recognize you, I can recognize the sword at your waist." For all the elves who have lived through the elven wars, it is a shadow of no faction difference. - Well, by the way, speaking of which, those two around you should be the envoys of the five elven kings, right? β
The Holy Maiden said with some confusion: "Yes, they are the envoys sent by the five elven kings to assist the coalition army, what's wrong?" β
"Since they have come by the will of the Five Elven Kings, don't you know about me?" The Dragon King sounded a little dissatisfied.
"Your business?" The holy woman was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan, "Didn't you tell me anything?" β
"This ......"
Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan glanced at each other. Now that the words have been said and said, there is nothing to hide.
The two of them told the Holy Maiden about the curse of the Earth Elf King, and the Holy Maiden was immediately amazed.
"Has His Majesty the Dragon King been bound here since the Elven War?" Her eyes widened.
"Yes, you can't move, and you can't go back to the Elemental Spirit Realm. But after thousands of years, I'm used to it now. The Dragon King said lightly, "For elves, time doesn't mean much. And it's also quite interesting to observe human life. β
"How could it be ......" The holy woman bit her lip and suddenly said to Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan, "Thousands of years have passed since the elf war, and the Dark Elf King has been completely defeated, can the five elf kings continue to bind the dragon king like this?" No matter how much damage it caused to the five elven kings back then, it was common for each to be its master during the war, and thousands of years of captivity should be enough. β
"It's useless for you to say that to us." Li Qinglan shrugged helplessly, "We were just ordered to deal with Solomon, and we don't know much about other things." β
There is no mention in the original work of why the five elf kings have not lifted the curse of the dragon king, perhaps because she thinks that her loyal subordinate as the dark elf king is a dangerous factor, and it is best not to let her go back to the elemental elf world.
It's just that this is a little difficult for the saint who is a human being. The elven war has nothing to do with humans, for humans it is a myth or a legend, and there is no real feeling. There is no prejudice against the defeated side in the war, so the Holy Maiden is very sympathetic to the Dragon King's plight - except for the Dark Elf King, who is the leader, of course. Due to religious needs, the existence of the Dark Elf King has been completely erased, and only a few people can know about the Dark Elf King from ancient documents.
"So if I want to free the Dragon King, what will the Five Elf Kings have? Because we need it now. The saint asked further.
"Impossible." Lin Yuedong replied quickly, "The Five Great Elf Kings may not mind if you let go of the Dragon King, but the curse of the Earth Elf King is very powerful, and even Esther will keep cutting it." β
"How do you know if you don't try?" The Holy Maiden said unconvinced, "Since the two of you don't object, then Your Majesty the Dragon King, please allow me to experiment a little." β
"This ......"
Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan hesitated. In the original work, it was mentioned that the saint went to deal with the curse, and in the end it failed.,So when the male protagonist had the same idea after a thousand years.,,Was dissuaded by Bahamut.,Because it can't be done.γ
But now tell the holy woman, she won't believe it. Besides, since it's the plot mentioned in the original work, it can only be left to happen.
"Alright, Your Highness the Holy Maiden, please test, and the two of us will retire for the time being." Li Qinglan said. The real body of the dragon king is a girl without clothes, and the two of them decided to avoid this and ignore it.
The saint nodded and walked towards the curtain. The door between the thrones slowly opened, and Lin Yuedong and Li Qinglan retreated, waiting outside the door for the news of the Holy Maiden's defeat.
It's just that when Lin Yuedong left, he always felt that he had overlooked something. There seemed to be something vital to the joint, which he had forgotten.
He pondered carefully for a long time, until a scream of the holy maiden came from inside the door, and then he suddenly realized, and then his face turned pale!
Oops, he's forgotten the characteristics of the holy sword Esther!
